I'm in South Florida so my growing season is much different than the rest of the US.

I agree that there are too many good reasons to continue to garden. I cannot see myself ever totally giving up...it is too ingrained in my blood. <br />I am looking forward to checking out your site as well!Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09270165369768480827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1609766496946098544.post-57594664672048846412011-11-26T21:16:31.730-06:002011-11-26T21:16:31.730-06:00Hey, I wandered over here from Granny's blog. ...Hey, I wandered over here from Granny's blog. . . I'll help cheer you through another year if you'll partner with me. I'm overwhelmed and under-weeded. Still, I think it's important to get out there and do. Big family, big food bills, etc. It just got away from me for a year and a half, but it's time. So what do you think?Stefaneenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422241601075022500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1609766496946098544.post-18437791425998792102011-11-19T08:09:40.193-06:002011-11-19T08:09:40.193-06:00These are familiar thoughts to me as I did the sam...These are familiar thoughts to me as I did the same thing last winter. : ) I wasn't going to grow as many veggies. I planned to lay down a thick layer of straw and plant easy annual flowers, to give some of my veggie beds a break for the season. As it turned out, that didn't happen (although still used straw for weeds). Seed catalogs arrived, and the excitement began. I did plant less <i>types</i> of veggies though... grew more storing vegetables that we use a lot of, like potatoes and onions, and tomatoes for canning.<br /><br />Instead I let a few flower beds go. And my strawberry bed will no longer be for strawberries. The weeds just intertwined with them too much and got out of control.charlie b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02458917197033510732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1609766496946098544.post-49201450701192389012011-11-16T20:58:29.304-06:002011-11-16T20:58:29.304-06:00Interesting.

To keep our garden productive this year in spite of the scorching Tennessee sun, we plan to employ various shading techniques. We also hope to find a reasonable source of mulch to cut down on both water and weeding needs.Barb Schanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13133725345387878197noreply@blogger.com
